Diddy makes brief appearance in trailer for son Quincy Brown’s upcoming vlog
The son of disgraced rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs has been slammed for featuring his father in an upcoming video amid sex trafficking allegations.
Fans have criticised Quincy Brown, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ adopted son, for the “tone-deaf” launch of his family vlog which includes his father.
A trailer for the new show, which was posted by the Shade Room, includes footage of the disgraced music mogul hugging his twin daughters in the kitchen as he and his brood cheered about a “Combs family vacation.”
The new series, which premieres on October 27 and promises to show the behind-the-scenes of his family, also includes clips of luxury family vacations, opulent mansions and bikini-clad women.
The trailer came shortly after Diddy’s children spoke out to defend their father following the accusations levelled against him.
The Combs clan issued a joint statement on Instagram authored by son Quincy who tagged his siblings Chance, Justin, Christian, Jessi and D’Lila.
Previously the children have only spoken to defend their late mother and stepmother Kim Porter with a defence of their father conspicuously absent.
“The past month has devastated our family. Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories, and false narratives that have spiralled into absurdity on social media,” the statement read.
“We stand united, supporting you every step of the way. We hold onto the truth, knowing it will prevail, and nothing will break the strength of our family.
“We miss you and love you dad.”
PRO ATHLETE ‘INTERVENED’ TO SAVE VICTIM
The statement comes as court papers from one of a slew of new court cases filed against Combs were made public.
The lawsuit alleges the victim was a male who did work for Combs in his capacity as the owner of a Los Angeles-based business renting luxury cars and jewellery.
The court papers state the victim was attending a party for the rapper’s Ciroc vodka brand in 2022 when Combs exposed his own genitals as they sat together in an office.
“Combs continued to move closer and then grabbed Plaintiff’s genitals through his pants, squeezing them in a rough and sexual manner,” court papers state.
“Plaintiff, shocked and disoriented, frozen momentarily and did not know how to respond to the weirdly inappropriate sexual advance made by Combs.”
The lawsuit goes on to name a high profile sports player, named only as “Professional Athlete A” who intervened to stop the alleged sexual assault.
‘I’LL MAKE YOU A STAR’
Combs allegedly assaulted a 17-year-old aspiring musician after telling him he would make him a star, a lawsuit claims.
New claims allege abuse by the music mogul in New York, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas dating back to 2000 but mainly in 2022, the accusers’ lawyer Tony Buzbee said on Facebook.
Unidentified celebrities are also accused of assaulting the accusers, some of the lawsuits claim.
A 17-year-old aspiring artist said he was assaulted by Combs after making small talk at a 2022 party in a Manhattan hotel penthouse.
The complainant, known anonymously as “John Doe”, said Combs told him that “he could make him a star” and drugged him with a drink when he arrived.
The alleged victim said he managed to flee after making an excuse that he needed to use the bathroom and called a friend to pick him up.
‘WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYING FOR 10 YEARS’: 50 CENT
Rapper 50 Cent has spoken for the first time about the sex trafficking and rape allegations surrounding Sean “Diddy” Combs after he claimed to have been calling out the rapper’s behaviour for “10 years”.
50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, told PEOPLE: “Look, it seems like I’m doing some extremely outrageous things, but I haven’t.
“It’s really me just saying what I’ve been saying for 10 years. Now it’s becoming more full-facing in the news … I’m like, ‘Yo, it’s just my perspective because I stayed away from that stuff the entire time, because this is not my style.’”
13-YEAR-OLD VICTIM NAMED IN LAWSUIT
Combs has been accused of allegedly drugging and raping a 13-year-old girl as two celebrities joined in at a VMAs afterparty in New York 24 years ago, according to a new wave of lawsuits.
The disturbing allegations were laid bare in a slew of civil lawsuits filed against the fallen music mogul in the Southern District of New York, which he has denied.
In one of the suits, according to the New York Post, an alleged teen victim — only identified as “Jane Doe” — claims she was attacked after having one drink that left her feeling “woozy and light-headed” at the drug-fuelled house party in September 2000, the court papers charge.
“Looking for a place to rest, Plaintiff entered what she believed to be an empty bedroom so she could lie down for a moment,” the suit states.
“Soon after, Combs, along with a male and female celebrity, entered the room.”
“Combs aggressively approached Plaintiff with a crazed look in his eyes, grabbed her, and said, ‘You are ready to party,’” the filing added.
The woman alleges she was then pinned down and raped by Combs and the male celebrity as the unnamed female star watched.
She claims Combs tried to force her to perform oral sex but she fought him off by hitting him in the neck, according to the filing.
The alleged victim said she then grabbed her clothes and left the bedroom — “roaming naked through the house looking for the exit.”
Once outside, the then-teen put on her clothes and walked to a nearby gas station, where a female clerk, who “noticed her distress,” let her use the phone to call her dad to pick her up, the filing states.
“After the assault, Plaintiff fell into a deep depression which continues to affect every facet of her life,” the suit said.
The girl said she’d ended up at the party after trying to get into the VMAs show at Radio City Music Hall without a ticket earlier that night.
In a bid to cajole her way inside, the alleged victim said, she approached several limousine drivers outside the venue — including one who worked for Combs and invited her to the afterparty.
The driver — who allegedly told her she “fit what Diddy was looking for” — later drove her to a “large white house with a gated U-shaped driveway,” the suit claimed.
She claims she signed a nondisclosure agreement preventing her from talking about what she saw at the celebrity-filled party.
The accuser didn’t name any of the stars she allegedly spotted, but described witnessing “widespread drug use, including marijuana and cocaine,” the suit says.
The latest suits come just days after Combs’ lawyers begged a Manhattan federal judge to force prosecutors to reveal the names of the ever-increasing number of accusers who have been coming forward with years-old allegations.
“This case is unique, in part because of the number of individuals levying allegations against Mr. Combs due to his celebrity status, wealth and the publicity of his previously settled lawsuit,” the lawyers argued in the letter.
“This has had a pervasive ripple effect, resulting in a torrent of allegations by unidentified complainants, spanning from the false to outright absurd.”
DIDDY’S LAWYERS DEMAND MORE INFO
Combs’ lawyers argued they needed to know the names of his accusers to properly prepare for his criminal trial, slated for May 5.
“The government is thus forcing him, unfairly, to play a guessing game — one made all the more challenging by the slew of baseless allegations that desperate plaintiffs are lodging at him (for the most part anonymously) in opportunistic civil suits,” the filing states.
When reached by The Post about the most recent allegations, Combs’ lawyers referred to an earlier statement in which they derided the lawsuits as “clear attempts to garner publicity.”
“Mr Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defences, and the integrity of the judicial process,” the statement said.
“In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone — adult or minor, man or woman.”
Combs, who is being held without bail in federal custody in Brooklyn, NY following his arrest last month, has pleaded not guilty to federal charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The federal indictment against him detailed troubling allegations that Combs manipulated women and plied them with drugs to participate in “Freak Offs” — violent sex sessions that were sometimes recorded against their will.
